I dont know if this is the proper place to post this... but i will start here. I have dsl broadband, i connect through my local connection using my ethernet card. I was unable to connect yesterday so i checked the properties of my network connections and there was another local area connection labeled as an internet gateway titled "local area connection on Linux IGD". I called the phone company and they say it is not associated with them. I do know that it is associated with msn messanger.....but where did it come from...i did not install it, i dont have linux on my system. I only have one computer in my office so it is not needed for networking. Any information would be appreciated. TIA.

Been there and tried that! All the ports belong to my torrent client bit-tornado, the porblem is that the internet gateway is completely unnessacery - the client doesn't need the gateway and nor does it create it. What I really want to find out is how it got there in the first place.
